jannosmit Posted October 10, 2011 Share This Anthem >> http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-za/bikes/model/anthem.x.29er.1/10745/53400/ It is the Anthem which everybody loves, with SRAM 2x10 components, which IMHO is beter for mountainbiking RRP R22 999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCRCARBON Posted October 10, 2011 Share Specialized Epic comp 29er can be sought out at just under R30k. Roval wheels Reba and brain tech with 2x10.Alu version of the epic winning frame. The giant is also good option but has heavy wheels which ay need upgrade later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squier Posted October 11, 2011 Share Silverback Moda. XT bike, Reba front, Fox RP2 rear. Under R20k. Nothing comes close ito of value. This was the 2011 model, not sure what the 2012 equivalent is. Also look at the GT Sensor 29er. Comes in just over R20k with an X9 upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
